Should we just loaf around?

Why loaf around when you can fight the locals?

You're the only one who can beat up the locals without consequences, but I'd still advise you to be careful.

"That's right, that's how it should be with all this paperwork! We'll get used to it, won't we."
-- Our squad inadvertently got a little involved in the dirty dealings of the high society... And personally, I had the misfortune to speak rather harshly about Her Highness, Braheia Air el Sufir, although after the incident was resolved, we communicated quite amicably. However, they brought it up when they assigned me to your command.

— Well, you shouldn't have said that about Braheia; she has always been a good girl, and I find it hard to imagine how she could have deserved any unkind words directed at her. But, of course, that's hardly a reason to send you here... However, it's quite in line with Lucretia's character, so I'm not surprised. — Antanea turned her gaze to Alma. — So, what's your story?
— Nothing much, really... I just ate an apple at the market and didn't pay for it.
— Oh, I believe you. But what's the real story?
— Well, I just let my hand wander for a moment under the skirt of a pretty waitress.
— Disgusting, and yet it doesn't deserve such a punishment. — The General looked at Alma more closely. — Of course, unless you're leaving out some details of your transgression... But never mind, let's leave the past in the past. You must have some questions for me, and it just so happens that now is the time to ask them.

Ar, lend me some money so I can go to the bar)

-- Intelligence on the terrain? Who are we fighting?
Valdemar already understood that he had been thrown into the demon's backyard. All that remained was to put on a brave face and feign a fighting spirit – perhaps he would even believe it himself.

— The feeling is mutual, Sir Rogdan, Lady Fay... — The princess seemed to force her worries away and a familiar confidence returned to her noble face. — How unfortunate that we are separated by metal bars and there isn't a deck of cards at hand!

—Hmm, perhaps so! I remember one of my comrades always had a deck with him. I, however, always ended up being the loser when we played. — Rogdan sighed. —But, we do have some literature here... They sometimes bring in quite interesting books, which might be of interest to Your Highness to pass the time. And besides that, I wouldn't dare to judge my esteemed neighbors, but personally, the number of interesting people to talk to has doubled!

- Inar, - Raphael nodded gloomily. - I suppose you've already heard the News... Incredible.
He sighed heavily.
- Are you alright? How is Leia?

— The situation back home isn't encouraging, but I'm fine. — Inar personally escorted the guest inside and poured him some tea. — Leia is busy right now, so it's just you and me here today.

Were there any orders from the higher-ups regarding us? Are we working in the mines, at the hospital, patrolling, or just idling?

For now, you're idling.

— I know we haven't gotten to know each other very well, we haven't really talked much during our time in the squad, but I wanted to check in on you. See how you're doing, — Linderia didn't beat around the bush and stated the reason for her visit directly, — and offer help, to the best of my ability. I know very well how difficult it is to be in such a situation.

— Ha! Keep your unwanted pity to yourself!

-- Intelligence on the area? Who are we fighting?
Valdemar already understood that he had been sent to the demon's backyard. All that remained was to put on a brave face and pretend to be in a fighting mood - maybe he would even believe it himself.

— We'll fight whoever we have to. This territory doesn't have much strategic importance, but there are plenty of potential enemies. — Antanea smirked. — If you want to be precise, this classification is hardly accurate, but the essence doesn't change with the details.

The main thing is not to get captured by them.

-- Alright, let's get straight to the point. State the combat objective.

For this reason, the task facing the squad at the moment was to decide on their leader.

As far as I understand, Linderia is the only character for whom this is more or less appropriate from an RP perspective, although I may be wrong. So, I'm ready to be the leader.

— Ha! Keep your unwanted pity to yourself!

— I apologize, — the moenian slightly bowed her head, — I really should have taken this into account. In that case, — Linderia took two vials out of her bag — one with a magic potion, and the other with a magical energy potion — I'll just offer them to you. Not out of pity, but as a skilled Sorceress who will surely find a worthy use for them.

- This is Kaya,” Raphael remembered, realizing he had forgotten to introduce his concubine. “Kaya is Inar. She’s not very talkative, so don’t let that bother you.”
He stirred his spoon in the glass.
- Thank you again for the building and for the space in “Bivreste.” You have a funny fellow working there. You know, I think that if you somehow formalized all of this, making it more accessible to casual visitors, it could theoretically become a very interesting and profitable place, or even an entire network with this unique touch. You would just need to carefully balance practicality for serious clients who are looking for reliability, and a bit of mystique for romantic simpletons and all those whose mundane lives are made more interesting by these tales. After all, which would you rather spend a reasonable sum on? Some unremarkable piece of iron in a dilapidated shack with a gloomy, grunting, and sweat-soaked blacksmith, or a slightly larger piece, but accompanied by a colorful sales pitch that doesn’t stray too far from basic realism, in a beautiful store, polished by a servant with a plunging neckline? Which one would you brag about to girls and other tough guys in the tavern, and feel more confident in battle? The main thing is to maintain a degree of realism, so as not to attract lawsuits, - Raphael grinned, taking a sip of tea.
- I’m not sure how aware you are of the events taking place in the city, especially regarding my people, but the situation is currently not easy… - the fishmonger’s voice returned to its serious tone. - Almost all of our people have been sent to three different fronts - I don’t know exactly where and how intense it is, but it’s definitely not a picnic. Of course, I have no doubt about their competence and ability to defend themselves, but given the latest news and movements in the region, I can’t help but worry. Plus, there remains the problem… - he paused and took another sip of tea. - You seem to have some influence in Clematis? In the lower district and in general? Have you heard any news or rumors in the last month related to Baron Rogdan Kraffmeyer? The direct founding father of our humble organization.

As far as I understand, Lynderia is the only character for whom this role-playing aspect makes sense, although I might be wrong. So, I'm ready to be the leader.

haven't read anything yet, but I agree with the leader of Linderia (AFK until evening, and then we'll see).

Mirastir was bored, Mirastir was unhappy that there was no one to fight, and they weren't assigned any peaceful tasks either. Therefore, the gladiator decided to find a peaceful occupation for himself. He didn't want to work in the mines (although who knows, maybe the conditions there aren't that bad?), so the strongman decided to visit the local ranch.
